GWT: PL Matchweek 8

[hatterson]

Starting Maguire after 1 training session in 3 weeks was stupid. Second half felt like the players had given up on Ole.

Yea it was pretty clear he’s not yet on game shape, at least from a mental standpoint. Several times he got beat today not because someone was faster or made a great play, but just because he hesitated on a decision and second guessed himself.

That right there is a fireable performance from Ole right there. 1 point in our last 9 and it looks like the dressing room might be going by the way the players look. Add in the fact he played Maguire at all let alone the full 90 is just... unacceptable. He’s gotta go.

Kovacic and Lukaku step up to take a free kick...right.

Ruben in form like this makes me cry with joy

RLC and Chalobah have been very good surprises for the season so far.

Lukaku looked to be a mile offside.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

On the replay, that's way tighter than I thought

Brentford can't afford to miss sitters.

RLC

RLC

He's lined up in the DM role in front of our defenders, but has so often ended up being the furthest forward midfielder because he's playing box to box. Brilliant first half from him so far.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Onyeka should be booked for that, that's such a blatant revenge tackle

Nothing more selfish than frustration foul 100 yards from your own goal

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Woulda been glorious from Timo, that's what we can get from a Lukaku-Werner combo

 

[Live in the Now]

About the Liverpool game, can't help but feel this is what would have happened last season without all those injuries. Watford didn't have a hope in hell, didn't create anything and got absolutely smashed.

Chilwell!!

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Chilwell is better than Alonso at the one thing Alonso can do

 

[Peen]

Chilwell, so hot rn

Probably the best 45 we've played since the first half at Liverpool.

 

[AB13]

8 defensive players, average performance, 0.25 xg, but Tuchel still gets away with it. This Chelsea team just never ever plays well but still somehow get results.

Chillwell is a cute guy

Ya wot?

 

[AB13]

Ya wot?

I still can’t see them getting top 3 though. Badly lack creativity and offensive quality. Might win a CL, but top 3 or at least top 2 isn’t happening. I mean, have they had 1 good performance this season outside of Arsenal with 9 injuries?

Classic Kovacic.
